Double breasted Hooded baby/Toddler coat  

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Does anyone have a pattern for a coat like this lovely one done by a mommy on Etsy?

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=7060081

It is so adorable, I must find it! I am not skilled enough (yet!) to be able to try it without a pattern so if anyone has seen or done a project similar I would love to know where you got it!

Thanks

Ok- how about modifying the tied baby hoodie?

Just use this pattern as a measurement guide. Add maybe 3" to each side of the front and overlap these. Then respace your button holes and I would personally sew on just the buttons for the double side (not bother with making them functional). I have used this pattern as a base for my kids sweaters and by changing up the needles and yarn it is amazing the differences it makes! GL- you can totally do this!

It would be pretty easy to adapt the Mossy Baby Jacket and add a hood.

Oh, I just found this one. Looks like exactly what you want.

It looks a whole lot like the Debbie Bliss Duffle Coat...got Ravelry? Here's the link.

Here's a blog entry with one featured in case you can't see the Ravelry link.

BTW, this pattern is in her Essential Baby book and likely available from your local library system.

Thanks so much! You all had great ideas. I love the Lion's brand one because it goes up to a size 4! And the Exercise before knitting one looks almost identical! The debbie bliss one is also very similar. It didn't look like any of them were raglan sleeves though and I really like that part of the etsy sweater too. Hmmm what to do!
